I use what ever I feel like using that given day as long as its legal. I like my Guns and Hunting to much to go Bow only! To much Family Tradition with gun hunting in my Family that I would miss out on if I was a Bow only hunter!

Only thing I use a gun for is trap shooting, and pheasant hunting.
I have no problem with rifles, or ML's, or anything. If I did, I'd have a problem with most my friends and family
How can you be "Bow only" if you hunt with a Shotgun for pheasants???

I am primarily a bowhunter, but I will use a gun for deer if I feel like. Mostly handgun or slug gun. Turkeys I plan to split time depending on how the season is going.
Small game, predators etc I will have a gun in hand. I don't think I could ever go 100% bow.

I voted for "Bow mostly. Some Gun" even though it's not a precise fit for me. Last year was my first year bow hunting, and I'm hooked for life. I don't, however, see me hanging up my rifle, muzzle loader or shotgun.... ever. I'm a "hunter", plain and simple, and I enjoy hunting using each and every method available to me.
I was bow only for 27 years... except I'd take the shotgun dove hunting. Shoulders gone bad, can't shoot a bow any more so, except for crossbows, bowhunting is a thing of the past. Back to muzzleloaders! REAL muzzleloaders. I'm easing back into smokepoles the way I got started the first time. Building a Kentucky rifle kit.
